This is a Wiring Library for the LPD8806 PWM LED driver chips, strips, and pixels.
The library is based upon the Adafruit Industries LPD8806 Library.
The original LPD8806 Library only used 24 bit colors, which requires the use of 4 bytes per pixel. To save space, at the cost of color resolution, the LPD8806VD library allows the use of 16 bit and 8 bit color depths.
